More progress

Half a dozen Crescent Hill folks were among those planning a joint James Lees Memorial Church-Covenant Community Church-Crescent Hill English as a new language education ministry earlier this week. A small planning committee met Monday at the seminary and a larger group of about 20 met at the other church and made some decisions Tuesday. They explored Monday and Wednesday or Tuesday and Friday as possible date combinations for a six-week fall 2009 program, possibly with dinner from 6 to 7 p.m. and class from 7 to 8 p.m. Jen, a seminary student, will apparently be the site coordinator. Committees on promotion, teaching, children’s activities, and meals formed and met. For now the group is planning for activities at the joint James Lees-CCC Frankfort Avenue/Clifton site, although the two congregations have a busy schedule for the relatively small building. Plenty of opportunities for involvement for others in the three congregations and the community – from going to neighborhood businesses with flyers to helping test students’ English skills to helping clean up after meals – exist. ESL education and children’s activities training starts at 9 a.m. Saturday at Strathmoor Presbyterian Church on Bardstown Road.
